Thanks Pullo

I'm just using jQuery 1.9.1If you look at the updated example - http://jsfiddle.net/88zaS/2/You'll see I can switch between the two tabs simply by clicking each tab.I'd like the link at the top to open a tab, depending on the ID.

What do you mean by "scroll and open up the tab"?

If these tabs are say near the bottom of the page, I'd like to use links at the top of the page that will scroll down and open that tab.

As the tabs are on the same horizontal plane you can just scroll to the parent container rather than each individual tab. You can also open the tab by using the index of the link clicked and opening the appropriate tab. This assumes that the links at the top are the same order as the tabs themselves (which would be logical anyway).
